Dave's Moog Little Phatty

MY RATING:
SOLD TWICE

UPDATE 10/15/2019: At some point in the past ten years I bought and sold another one of these models. It was a "Redback" edition that toured with me for a few shows, but ended up being underutilized in the long run, despite the superb fun factor.
UPDATE 6/1/2009: Sold. Boo. This means I own no analog any more (except some neato Metasonix stuff).
UPDATE 9/17/2007: This awesome little analog monophonic science station is the Tribute Edition Little Phatty, serial #106 out of a thousand made. The YouTube video shown here is my original Parallax song "Inner Circus."
The Phatty does everything you need, and nothing you don't. It's got a soft, creamy, rounded-edge tone, compared to the more abrasive, raw qualities of the older Moogs. It's a perfectly, beautifully refined synth and a great way for anyone on a budget to have "that Moog sound" for their studio. I'm psyched just being able to live in a world where something called a "Little Phatty" synthesizer even exists. I have a blast with this thing and hope everyone into synths gets a chance to experience one for themselves.
It's got a little less interface bells & whistles than its big brother, the Voyager, and also one less oscillator, so I can't honestly rate it a full five stars in comparison. So let's say it's a solid 4.9 outta five!
